  • Mount Greylock, 3,491 feet (1,064 m), is the highest point in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; its peak is located in the northwest corner of the state in the western part of the town of Adams (near its border with Williamstown) in Berkshire County. Although geologically part of the Taconic Mountains, Mount Greylock is commonly associated with the abutting Berkshire Hills to the east. The mountain is known for its expansive views encompassing five states and the only taiga/boreal forest in the state. A seasonal automobile road (open annually from late May through November 1) climbs to the summit, where stands the iconic 93-foot (28 m) high lighthouse-like Massachusetts Veterans War Memorial Tower. A network of hiking trails traverse the mountain including the 2,174-mile (3,499 km) Appalachian Trail. Mount Greylock State Reservation was created in 1898 as Massachusetts' first public land for the purpose of forest preservation.

Гора представляет собой возвышенность размерами приблизительно 18 на 7 км с несколькими вершинами: Маунт-Грэйлок (1064 м), Сэддл-Болл (990 м), Маунт-Фитч (948 м), Маунт-Уильямс (899 м), Маунт-Проспект (820 м), Стоуни-Ледж (780 м), Рэггед (771 м). На склонах горы расположена тайга, где распространены ель красная (Picea rubens) и пихта бальзамическая (Abies balsamea). Гора не представляет сложности для покорения — есть автодорога, множество троп. На вершине горы расположена башня-маяк в память ветеранам войны высотой 28 м. Гора находится на известной Аппалачской тропе — популярном туристическом маршруте.
